What to Expect

Led by Obi and his trusted circle of expert local guides, this private taxi tour weaves through the streets of London to uncover the deep-rooted legacy of the African and Caribbean communities that have helped shape the city.

From the Windrush Generation to present-day changemakers, we’ll visit key landmarks, murals, and neighbourhoods that carry the weight of struggle and the joy of celebration. Along the way, you’ll hear powerful stories — some overlooked, some forgotten, and many that will stay with you long after the journey ends.

Expect laughter, conversation, and reflection — all from the comfort of your own private Black cab. This is London through a different lens: one that’s proud, powerful, and long overdue.
